Packs

Starting in 2014 we're introducing a whole new lineup of backpacks. In the last decade much has changed in the world of ultralight and lightweight packs. Over the years dealing with packs, we've learned a lot. In addition we brought in Brian Frankle to help with the design of our next generation packs.

Together, we've combined our expertise both in the design of ultralight packs and in their usage. Over the years we've carried lightweight packs over thousands of trail miles, talked to thousands of users and worked hard to go back to understanding the fundamentals of both pack design and use.

Designed by Brian, our new Fast & Light or Flight Series of packs includes features not seen on packs of this type. The new vest harness, stabilizes the pack so that it moves as you move. It helps with the load transfer and provides a convenient place to store need equipment.

Our Fusion Series draws deeply on the talents of both Brian and Ron. Both from an ascetic point of view and from the core structure of the pack. The Fusion Packs are designed to specifically to eliminate the need to factor in total pack weight when choosing a pack. These lightweight packs are designed to comfortably carry whatever the pack will hold.

We sincerely hope you enjoy carrying these packs half as much as we have designing them.
